There's no room for this.... Sega quit for a reason.

Apple should just make games, 3rd party if they want to get into gaming... Like Sega does now.... I can't see myself with no more than 2 next gen consoles... and, PS4 has one of those spots locked already, and the other is reserved for nintendo, or microsoft.

I don't know, though...

Apple is just one of those products everyone owns... There's a reason I don't have an iPhone, or an iPod. Honestly, though, that is my only reason, they don't seem to make terrible products... It's just, too many people owning them for my tastes.  That may seem backwards to ome of you, but, I'm not the one to fall to peer pressure.

I'm not taking a puff from your dirty cigs, and I don't want a sip of your beer.

 

Now, if close to no one buys it, but, at the same time, it's something i deem favorable, then, I'll consider it with PS4.

The issue isn't that Apple should make games, it's that Apple would have to make games if they wanted to make a console. Just as Nintendo's efforts at providing "services" are often half-baked or worse because Nintendo is not a service provider, Apple similarly is not a game-maker. Unless they bought Valve outright, or another game maker to do the work for them. Microsoft had a solid framework for really building a software-publishing-and-development group to help push and differentiate the Xbox, but does Apple have that framework in place?
